What is there to do at 50?

Heya all
so i been thinking, after all this awsome lvling i do love going through the story on my marauder and killing stuff, but when all that is done, what is there to do at 50? is there any daily quest hub like in tolbarad, molten front, therazane, in wow? or is it just flashpoints and PvP?

Gearing up your companions, getting their affection to 10000, doing their quests.
Collecting mounts
Discovering Datacrons
Finding Lore objects
Discovering the maps
Returning to planets who's side quests you skipped to get the remainder of the story there
Making friends, socialising with your guild
Doing the other 7 class stories.

pvping to rank 60, where apparently the entire opposing faction abused the hell out of Ilum when it was broken to get rank 60 in less than a day.

Currently its what Jinna said, they do have another 2 chapters of story to add to the classes to add some more story telling content, but other then that just your standard "try to find everything, cap "reps", get best gear"... which honestly is going to be any MMORPG. Quit frankly I personally like playing through all the different stories and what not, but at 50 there is nothing revolutionary in the game that has not already been the case for about 10 years. For me personally I am not going to bother with grinding the best gear, Ill do story stuff and what not, but won't do (many) dailies because though every 2-4 person quest is a daily that is boring to do, playing multiple classes through the story in different ways seems more interesting to me.

But as far as end game content goes, they already have chapters 4 and 5 of your personal story completed and are just releasing it slowly so that there is a constant flow of small updates rather then a unsteady flow of big updates since people don't like 3,4,5 months between new content in MMOs.

All in all, current end game content is no better and no worse then most games in the MMORPG market, the slow trickle of constant updates may keep me sticking around at the monthly fee with how many alts I play, but if not even if GW2 is meh I would rather play it for free then pay a monthly sub. But with how many alts I am playing in different play styles I will be subed for quit a while still and will be playing ToR and GW2 at the same time since one has a sub and one doesn't. Either way end game currently is average, but as they trickle in more content is may get better or worse.

The problem with the internet is parallel to its greatest achievement: it has given the little man an outlet where he can be heard. Most of the time however, the little man is a little man because he is not worth hearing.

I think the most valor I heard anyone getting was 20-25 ranks. Anyone who hit rank 60 through this broken mechanic probably was around in the 50's or high 40's anyway. You make it sound like it was worse than it truly was. I was out there for 2 1/2 hours trying to get my daily done on the day of the change, and I only managed to get 2 or 3 ranks(from 12-15). Granted, I am a melee and my contribution mostly consisted of standing behind all the ranged and waiting for kills, because if I jumped anywhere near those turrets my game dropped to .5 FPS and I died lol

Ok well im curious, you got the game so i assume you know a little about it , probably read a bit on there official site. Then you have levelled a char to 50 but all this time you was clueless to what happens next?
Sorry but i cant take you seriously and im surprised anyone can when these threads pop up especially in this place where 90% of the time these threads are only created to provoke the swtor players / breeding place for wow players to bash it.
sorry but its how i feel /shrug

On tuesdays, mostly, on my server is where people hang out in illum.. We'll have 50(rep) vs 150(emp) battles for hours, farming empire at our cannons until enough stupid republics show up to waste cannon charges and let us get farmed...

Ilum is fine now. The first 2 hours of patch 1.1 was when it was abused.

What is this force I sense? Is it the force to point things that one does not know?

Nobody got 60 valor in less than a day. Seriously, NOBODY did that.

@OP : Ya, it's like everyone said, if you're the type that usually goes for GS on your Xbox then you have ;

Mounts to collect,
Discover Datacrons,
Find lor,
Collect companions

And if you're not that patient-a-guy (such as myself) then you have yourself PvP on WZ's and Ilum and your Flashpoints, along with your everyday Dark side/Light side points farm and Social points farm.
